Baili Qingchen didn't want her to escape from him, so he suddenly grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him.
"I thought there were no secrets between us. I thought the two of us could talk about anything. Is this all what I thought?"
The man's tone was obviously unhappy. He looked at the girl in front of him and asked coldly.
Feng Lingyu's butterfly-wing-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she bit her lip, "There is nothing unhappy, the emperor must have overthought it!"
"I'm telling you, I know you better than anyone else!
Don't think that just because you are pretending to be cold, I don't know what you are thinking!
You have been deliberately avoiding me for the past two days, and you even hate my touch!"
Baili Qingchen is an extremely sensitive person. If there is anything wrong with the person he loves, he will immediately notice it.
"Isn't the Emperor unwilling to share anything with me?
Why do you have to force people to say things they don’t want to say?"
Feng Lingyu looked at him a little aggrievedly. This man was really overbearing. He only allowed him to have secrets, so she couldn't say anything.
"What have I hidden from you? Didn't I tell you that I had no choice but to send you here? Concubine Lian has been sent to the cold palace by me. The next thing is to weaken the power of the Wang family!"
Baili Qingchen sighed softly, held her little face and explained, "Don't think too much, okay? I just don't want you to get involved in these intrigues. You are not suitable to compete with them!
"
"You mean these decisions you made are all for my own good?"
Feng Lingyu's eyes were clear, and she looked at the man in front of her and didn't seem to believe what he said. Baili Qingchen just didn't want to get involved in too many things, and it had nothing to do with whether she liked herself or not.
"Then what do you think? Each of those women is more insidious than the last. You don't even know what she wants to do next. Concubine Lian can harm the Queen Mother who brought her up like that. Will she spare you?"
Baili Qingchen knew those women too well, so he didn't want her to get involved, but this girl didn't seem to understand her thoughts.
"I just want to know something about your past. There have been a lot of strange things happening in the womb recently, especially these crazy concubines in the cold palace. Each of them seems to have a secret!
Or maybe they are keeping the same secret!"
Baili Qingchen was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, "Are you angry with me because of such a small thing?"
"This is not a trivial matter, it affects whether I can trust you.
The emperor always keeps saying that I am different, but I don’t think there is anything different about me!”
Feng Lingyu looked at the man in front of her seriously. She felt very unhappy, but she didn't show it so obviously.
"Of course it's different. You said the queens are nothing!
In fact, I have always wanted to know the truth. Who is my mother-in-law and who killed her? I have not found out for so many years!
The reason why those crazy concubines in the harem are alive and well is because they know this secret.
I just thought that one day they would be able to return to normal and explain things clearly to me.
After waiting for so many years, no one dares to tell the truth!"
Baili Qingchen talked about the ins and outs of this matter in an understatement. In fact, this matter was not very important to him.
So he didn't plan to tell the girl. Since she asked about it today, he would tell her carefully to save him from thinking nonsense.
"Aren't they all crazy? Does the Emperor really believe what they say?"
"I don't know what I'm planning now. I just think that if these people are still alive, maybe I can find clues. If all these people die, I will never find clues in this life.
No matter what, it’s just an idea. As for whether this matter can be investigated clearly, it’s not very important to me!”
Baili Qingchen grabbed her hand and put it on his chest, and explained patiently, "I have never seen my biological mother since I was born. I always thought that the Queen Mother was my biological mother. Later I found out,
Not really.
There are many people in the palace who know about this, and various versions are circulating, and I don’t know which version is true!”
"oh……"
Feng Lingyu nodded in understanding. It was because he had never had one and didn't know what his mother was like, so he wanted to find out. Baili Qingchen raised those crazy people in
The reason why he has not died in the cold palace for so many years is probably because he took good care of her.
"Oh, what? You are angry with me just because of this matter. Is it really worth it?"
Baili Qingchen gently scratched her nose with a doting smile on her face.
"I just want to get to know you better. I don't want you to hide anything from me. Isn't this okay?"
Feng Lingyu said what she was thinking very frankly. Baili Qingchen didn't expect her to say that, so she laughed at herself, "Of course I don't want you to know such an embarrassing thing, but I absolutely don't want you to know about it."
I didn’t expect you to get along so well with these crazy people!”
"They are not all crazy, crazy people live the purest lives, just like Concubine Jade, when she is crazy, she will treat me as a king.
Clinging to me like a little girl, Little Red and Little Green sometimes wake up and realize that they are being persecuted, but they don’t even remember their names!
For example, the imperial concubine should be pretending, she should know many secrets, but she dare not tell them, so she has to stay in this cold palace!"
Feng Lingyu knew these people fairly well. They didn't know that she had a good relationship with the emperor, and they thought she was not favored, so they didn't hide anything in front of her.
"I didn't expect that you would get something unexpected here? So you also listened to what they said about my mother?"
Baili Qingchen was a little surprised. She had been watching these madmen for so many years without seeing any clues. She could actually understand them so clearly. Sure enough, kind people will influence them no matter what kind of people they meet.
"Hmm... I didn't hear it in detail, and I don't know if it's true or not!
They said that the Queen Mother has been threatening you with your mother's affairs, but in fact your mother has passed away!
They also said that your mother was killed after giving birth to you..."
Feng Lingyu didn't know whether these words were true or false, but she wanted to tell him that if it was like what those people said, he was being manipulated by the Queen Mother for this kind of thing, she hoped he could recognize the truth soon.
"Is this what you heard them say?"
The expression on Baili Qingchen's face changed rapidly and suddenly became serious. Only he and the Queen Mother knew about this matter, how did others know about it.
"Yes, we were chatting that night. Sometimes the ladies would be sober, so they would talk about things from the past!"
